Ingredients
Method
- In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until soft and translucent. Stir in the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.
- Sprinkle the flour over the onions and stir until smooth. Slowly pour in the broth while whisking to prevent lumps.
- Add the chopped broccoli and let the soup simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender.
- Lower the heat and stir in the milk. Add the cheddar cheese gradually, stirring until melted and creamy.
- Season with salt and black pepper. For a smoother texture, blend part of the soup, then stir it back in for a mix of creamy and chunky.
